Thank you so much for taking your time and helping me. I have edited the first one again and added a second paragraph. Would you please look over both of them once again and tell me any changes I should make?

Please don't edit posts after you've received responses. It makes a nonsense of some replies. If you want to incorporate suggested changes, you need to rewrite the text in a new response.
